Believe in your team until it’s no longer possible. Go Dees!

    Gold Coast because they've never played finals and nobody else will tip them and I don't want them to feel left out.

    Everybody else is going to vote for Melbourne, aren't they?

    at this time of the year, hope springs eternal!

    the mfcss will kick in with the first report of 'player x is on restricted duties as the dees return to the track'

    Remember when we were at or near the bottom of the ladder. Start of pre-season there would be a report of some player training the house down, and we somehow thought this would turn us into a contender the following year.

    Assuming we are lucky with injuries and can tweak the game plan then we're as good a chance as any

    Swans will be traumatised, Pies approach will be countered, I can't where the Lions improvement will come from (although they do get the best player in the draft) and I have doubts about Freo. The doggies have defensive frailties, Richmond might surprise given the players they are trading in so they could improve

    I reckon it'll either be us or Geelong.

    Lol at the bias 😂

    I love it. Right now at the very least, we are contenders. For the best part of the past 6 decades I could not put my hand on my heart and say that we were a realistic chance. Right now I can!

    As the season progresses I hope I can up the ante (like in 2021) and with hand on heart say that we are ‘serious contenders’. 🤞

    Thinking it will happen and wanting it to happen are very different things.

    Yes, and a dream is a wish your heart makes.

    Yesterday was a nightmare. Don’t even think it people - you will manifest it…

    It is going to come down to fitness, injuries to key personnel, the draw and a little bit of luck. Coupled to a tweaking of the game plan, bringing in a couple of new recruits and courage to reward our kids with games when they deserve them. Let’s face it we should always be willing to change up our bottom 6-8 players. We have the talent and should get enough from LJ, etc to cover our weaknesses, no more games based on past actions.

    Melbourne, closely followed by Flagmantle

    Almost be nice if Gawn gave Jackson a ruck lesson in the Grand final next year.

    Maybe the question should’ve been “IF NOT MELBOURNE, who will be Premiers in 2023?” We would’ve had more variety in our results. 😂

    Reddit AFL forum held this poll and there was an overwhelming amount of neutral supporters saying that Melbourne will come back strong in ‘23. Many also, tipping us for the flag.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
